Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 253 - 249 That is Wishful Thinking
Chapter 253: Chapter 249 That is Wishful Thinking
——————
Lin Aimei glanced from the corner of her eye towards the beauty, still whining and calling out "Dad, Mom," truly feeling anxious about her intelligence— freēnovelkiss.com
Clearly, the Yan Family were already displaying anger, yet as the sole beneficiary, how could she naively believe that the Yan Family would continue to accept her calmly?
It’s nothing but a delusional infatuation from Yan Jinxian.
Don’t be fooled by Lin Aimei being just a simple village girl, her understanding of human nature is indeed deeper than Zhang Zhiguo’s.
If Yan Jinxian didn’t have a mother like Lin Zhaodi, there might still be some hope. Unfortunately, her mother is a foolish pig, indulging her daughter in the wealth of others yet daring to abuse their daughter from a young age?
Absolutely absurd, what a brainless fool.
Lin Zhaodi is no match for the public security authorities. After being forcibly detained in the detention center, no matter how much she struggled or acted out, with the evidence being conclusive and the combined pressure from the Yan Family, no one dared to visit her in detention.
Such a big incident occurred in Shanglin Village, not only was it known in Old Lin Village and Qingfeng Village, but several versions also spread throughout the town and the county town!
Hearing of this, the well-informed Mr. Liu cooperated with the Yan Family to transform Lin Zhaodi’s case, which at most would have led to four or five years of detention, into one with seventeen or eighteen charges, ultimately sentencing her to fourteen years!
Zhang Zhiguo was almost implicated too, but since he was unaware and repeatedly apologized to the Yan Family with a good attitude, and Zhang Hongqiang also kept apologizing, plus there was no mention of Zhang Zhiguo ever abusing Zhang Shan Ni in the records...
It was just his incompetence.
Considering Yan Jinxian was still injured and had no guardian to take her in, eventually, the Yan Family refrained from taking drastic measures and lightly waived Zhang Zhiguo’s charges.
For Zhang Hongqiang, this outcome was very satisfactory. Knowing of his wife’s cruelty, Zhang Zhiguo was deeply disappointed and never thought of visiting her once.
It wasn’t that he was heartless, but he truly hated her—
Her impulse, how many people did it drag down? Most importantly, the pain suffered by his obedient younger daughter... although he too had a role in causing this pain!
But at that time, he didn’t know that Zhang Shan Ni wasn’t his actual daughter!
Only when lost, does one realize its precious value.
No matter how much Yan Jinxian cried, the Yan Family left.
Before leaving, from the villagers, they learned how little Zhang Shan Ni had suffered in her childhood. Qi Chunlan felt extremely pained inside, and the whole family left with gloomy faces, not wanting to see Yan Jinxian at all.
Because every time they saw Yan Jinxian, they were reminded of the hardships Zhang Shan Ni had endured, and how this pseudo daughter[sister] had enjoyed such happiness and fulfillment.
Before leaving, the Yan Family also specifically expressed their deep gratitude to Zhang Hongqiang’s family.
Although Zhang Hongqiang was also a member of the Zhang Family, the Zhang Family were ultimately unaware, and they were the only family members accepted by their biological daughter, as well as the only ones who had shown kindness to their biological daughter over the years.
For all these reasons, the Yan Family could not show a cold face towards Zhang Hongqiang!
They should be thankful that among the Zhang Family, there were still those who had genuinely cared for her.
Compared to the Zhang Family, it should actually be the Yan Family who ought to reflect the most. However, with Qi Chunlan’s emotions already on the brink of collapse, who dare truly resent her?
As for old matters resurfaced, they cannot alter these pre-determined facts!
As for the Xie Family, upon learning that Zhang Shanni is now in Rong District and married to Rong Wei, the Xie Family has been very kind to this daughter-in-law from the start, and naturally, the Yan Family wanted to express their gratitude.
However, a sudden telegram from the hospital announced that Yan Jinsi’s condition was critical and had worsened again!
In their haste, the Yan Family had the Zhang Family send the gifts to the Xie Family, and even without time to properly express their gratitude and intentions, they hurriedly drove back to the capital.
In this era, no matter how urgent, trains are not as fast as private cars, and lacking airplanes, there’s nothing to be done.
By the time Qi Chunlan and her family hurried to the hospital, the Tao Family had also arrived. Fortunately, with the Tao Family in charge, they managed to secure a blood source just in time to snatch Yan Jinsi’s life back from the jaws of death.
Qi Chunlan collapsed in front of the ICU, crying until her voice was hoarse, muttering blame on herself:
"Shishi, you have to be alright, don’t scare Mom! Wuu~~ It’s all my fault, all my doing, if I had been more careful, how could I have been deceived by that vile Lin Zhaodi, not even knowing it involved my daughter?
Even with Shishi, I failed to take care of him, letting him fall ill from a young age, beset by one misfortune after another! Others can joyfully run and jump outside, but he alone, he can only keep taking medicine! Wuu wuu... It’s all my fault!"
"Chunlan, don’t be like this, if Shishi wakes up, he will blame himself even more. At this time, you can’t fall apart, you’re his mother, only if you stay strong can he find the courage to stand up!"
Yan Dongsheng was also depressed, having not yet seen his daughter and now his young son facing a life-threatening situation.
Yan Jinchang’s condition was also dire, in the hospital, indeed after his younger brother was saved, he collapsed onto his older brother—
Turns out, his wound had long since burst and gotten infected, and he carelessly said nothing and followed others back and forth to the countryside, the wound going untreated, and now, an infection flared up, causing him to faint from fever.
Frightened, Qi Chunlan shrieked and rushed forward, already on edge from her children’s issues.
"Changchang—" When Qi Chunlan saw her own child faint again, she instinctively rushed forward, but her spirit too heavily struck, she couldn’t bear it and also fainted, collapsing into her husband’s arms.
This situation threw both the Yan and Tao families into chaos, luckily being in the hospital, they received immediate medical help.
After the Yan Family left, Zhang Hongqiang had his son personally pen down the events of the past few days in detail, explaining clearly the reasons behind these tragic occurrences, before mailing it to Zhang Shanni in Rong District.
He wrote this letter not just to express regrets but also to convey that their family would always consider her one of their beloved nieces, with each grandson leaving a few words in the letter, which took thirteen pages to complete, indicating how thick the letter was!
Zhang Zhiming thought more deeply, under all prepared conditions, he also included an application for a name change certificate in the letter.
The intentions of the Yan Family were clear—they considered Zhang Shanni as family, seeing that the Yan Family wanted to properly compensate her, it was wise to think that returning her to the status of Yan Family’s daughter was the best choice for her.
Thus, Zhang Zhiming took such an action.
Even though deep down they knew this was inevitable, Zhou Dahua and her grandchildren still secretly shed tears several times—when they see her again, San Ni won’t know what to call her!
The sad truth is, no matter what name she takes on in the future, she will likely no longer carry the Zhang surname.
